Ghost Soldiers: The Epic Account of World War II's Greatest Rescue Mission

Discover a gripping account of one of World War II's most daring operations. In January 1945, a select group of U.S. soldiers embarked on a perilous mission deep behind enemy lines in the Philippines.

Their objective: to rescue over Allied prisoners of war, including survivors of the brutal Bataan Death March, from a notorious Japanese camp. The recent discovery of a massacre elsewhere in the Philippines heightened the urgency and complexity of this critical operation.

This National Bestseller vividly reconstructs the raid, detailing the prisoners' harrowing experiences of starvation, disease, and torture, as well as their remarkable resilience and defiance. It is a testament to extraordinary bravery and the enduring human spirit under the most extreme conditions.

From the author of Blood and Thunder, this enthralling story, recognized by Esquire as "The greatest World War II story never told," is a powerful addition to History & Politics literature and a confirmed New York Times Best Sellers selection.
